6yrs ago my good friend bought a bike &did “hire purchase”. The stuff brought in mad returns,lot of my guys did that &they made back mad cash. I too wanted to join so I did,carried all my savings then & bought a bike, a wk later the bike was collected at gun point from the rider.
I talked with my mom about it and she wasn’t angry with me, she asked me one question, “e’we ife e’mutalu” (meaning did I learn anything) ?

(Within me I was like ah ah, what’s this, they stole my bike and you are asking me if I learnt anything from what happened.)
I said tell me Ma, she now said, I shouldn’t venture into anything because my closest friends or people around me are doing it, that the fact it works for others doesn’t mean it would work for me. That my destiny and path is different. That if I want to engage into something-
-it should be that I want to. Not because of pressure that people are doing it and making in returns.

That lesson stuck with me.
Engage in something because you want to not because of a trend or because people are doing it. That it favors your friend doesn’t necessarily mean it would favor you.

Stay safe ❤️

1. Sex doesn’t make the breast sag.
2. Fondling doesn’t make the breast sag
3. Sliming tea do not reduce belly fat
4. Waist trainer do not reduce belly fat.
5. Drinking herb or using penis enlargement cream will not increase the size of ur penis.
6. Yeast infection is not an STD.
Sex or fondling of the breast are not reasons why breasts sag. When a woman’s breast sag it doesn’t mean she is wayward. No!

A woman’s breast may sag do to the following reasons:

-Weight gain
-Sunburn
-Aging
-Smoking
One wrong notion some people have especially women is that breastfeeding their babies make their breast sag but this is also wrong. It’s mainly the body changes that occurs during pregnancy that may result in the breast sagging not the fact your breastfeed your baby.

1. Drink atleast 2L (9cups) of water today.
2. Exercise for 30mins or walk 6000 steps through today.
3. No soda today.
4. Add vegetables to your diet.
5. Get atleast 6hrs of sleep.

RT for others
It’s important to note that a lot of things influence the amount of water u take or u should take.
Someone that lives in a hot environment, someone that did intensive exercise, a pregnant woman, or someone that stands for long hours will definitely take or need to take more water than someone that barely does anything through the day (which is in fact not so healthy).

So this man whose genotype was AS was dating a woman whose genotype was also AS and they had no idea. Nobody cared to ask. Love was too sweet. It was when they were deeply invested in each other and were already planning to get married and how many children they were going to-
-have that they ran genotype and other tests. The woman was AS and the man was AS too but he hid it, he told her he was AA.
He couldn’t imagine her with anyone else, he wouldn’t be able to live with himself if that happened. So he lied, that his result came out and he was AA. Every other thing came out fine and they got married but problem started when they gave birth to their first child, he was-

A professor slumped in his office & was rushed to the hospital where he was placed on oxygen for 3months. His family were paying hundreds of thousnd naira every wk throughout his stay in the hospital for 3 complete months. He later came dwn with stroke. It was even more work for-
-his wife and family. Carrying him around and all, last year he died.

What really happened ?

He was overly stressed, he worked very hard to become a professor and when he did he stil continued working giving himself no breaks. He lectures. He marks his scripts.
He was working 247. He barely rested, no time for rest. He had multiple goals he was chasing, they kept him up always. He was always in the school, in his office, his Bp shot up and kept shooting up and he never knew.

Alpha male ≠ Treating women badly
Alpha male ≠ Harassing women
Alpha male ≠ Taking advantage of women
Alpha male ≠ Posting screenshots
Alpha male ≠ The number of girls u control or sleep with

Being an alpha male goes beyond all that. Take a look at the wolves for example-
-the alpha stands out, they are dominant, they are leaders, they lead the pack. They protect the interests of the pack, they are not about taking advantage, they are first leaders and protectors.
If you want to be an alpha male then first thing is to stand out and that comes from within. That comes from building yourself. Being a leader is not when you are the president or the gov.

“You even don’t have to be a leader to lead”.
